Abstract: Laminar insulating foam roofing material (eg. phenolic resin foam) having improved dimensional stability and which resists warpage when hot asphalt is applied to one surface thereof during installation, is disclosed. A flexible web material (36) such as Kraft paper is bonded to opposing surfaces of the foam material (30) by means of a uniform asphalt coating (58) applied to one surface of the web material, the asphalt being a "sandwich" layer between the insulating foam material and said web material. This material is made by the steps of: (a) forwardly advancing the aforesaid laminar insulating foam material between a pair of opposed rolls; and (b) simultaneously applying a predetermined quantity of a heat absorbing and bonding material to surfaces of two flexible webs on opposing sides of said laminar foam material and bringing said two flexible webs each of which has a coating of said heat absorbing and bonding material applied to a surface thereof, into contact with said opposing surfaces of said laminar foam material at said opposed rolls, such that after said bringing into contact of the insulating foam material and coated web material, said materials bond together to form said laminar material.

Abstract: A releasable connector (3) is described for connecting a first member (2) to a second member (1), the members (1, 2) being adapted to be inserted into one another. The releasable connector (3) comprises a lock element (4) located in a recess (5) in a surface of the first member (2) and biasing means is provided to bias the lock element (4) to a first position in which the lock element (4) extends from the recess (5) to engage a shoulder on the second member (1) to lock the first member (2) to the second member (1) against withdrawal. A movable release device (7) is located on the second member (1) so that actuation of the release device (7) causes the release device (7) to co-operate with a surface (9) of the lock element (4) to move the lock element (4) to a second position against the action of the biasing means. This causes the lock element (4) to be disengaged from the shoulder on the second member (1) with the release device (4) terminating short of the recess (5) in the first member (2). The arrangement is such that during withdrawal of the members (1, 2) from each other the lock element (4) moves to a third position in which the lock element (4) is further into the recess (5) than in the second position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to artificial onlay tooth crowns or inlays composed of a prefabricated core designed for preparations for onlay tooth crowns or inlays in natural teeth. The core is preferably fabricated from a high strength densely sintered ceramic material by copy milling from a negative reproduction from the prepared cavity to a compacted body or a presintered ceramic material. During the copy milling the sintering shrinkage is considered by enlargement of the copy milled compacted body or the presintered body corresponding to the sintering shrinkage. The onlay tooth crowns and inlays are given the final shape by shaping the surfaces outside the cavity of the compacted or the presintered body. After the final sintering the external surface can be shaped before a veneer material is attached to the external surface of the core by e.g. firing of dental porcelain. To manufacture onlay tooth crowns or an inlay according to the method of the invention decreases essentially the manufacturing time for onlay tooth crowns and inlays and at the same time the strength and the accuracy to shape increase.

Title: Target nucleic acid amplification/detection systems.
Inventor: CHU BARBARA CHEN FEI
IPC: C12Q1/6867
Filed: 1989-12-05
Abstract: This invention relates to the use of functional reporter molecules in the detection and measurement of RNA sequences in a sample, as a determination, for example, of pathogenic disease existence or potential. The invention is predicated on the utilization of nucleotide sequences, one having a probe sequence linked to a sequence capable of initiating replication by an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. The other is capable of hybridizing to a strand separated from the extension product of the first nucleotide sequence after hybridization to a specific target sequence. The extension product of the second hybridized nucleotide sequence serves as a template source for autocatalytic replication by the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. The replication products are detected as a means for detection of nucleic acid sequences.

Title: Process and device for determining the optimal training speed for throwing, shooting or passing in throwing sports or ball games.
Inventor: HOLZER EDUARD
IPC: A63B71/06
Filed: 1990-08-08
Abstract: The invention relates to a process and a device for determining the optimal training speed for throwing, shooting or passing in throwing sports or ball games. The distance between the passing site and the target is established. A target speed for a given number of throws, shots or the like which constitutes a measurement run is allocated to the trainee. This target speed is afresh for consecutive runs. For each run, the distances between the points of impact and the target are measured or calculated, in particular statistically combined or evaluated. The angular error on throwing or shooting is calculated from the distances between the points of impact and the target. The optimal training speed is the speed, chosen or determined from the target speeds, at which the angular error on throwing or shooting is a minimum.
